Industral Revolution

started in the 1600 in England. Scottland, Ireland, and England made up the British isle.Citizens were subsistiance farmers, or someone who grows crops for there family.In the later 1600, the inclosure movment happened. The enclosure movment involed enclosed pubilc lands so farmers had to ask permission to use the land. They gave the land of small farm owners to larger farm owners. The farms who lost there land moved to cities. People moving to the cities makes inndustries larger. Farmers are looking for better ways to farm so people are coming up with inventions. Jethro Tall thought that when people were seeding there lands for crops that alot of seeds were getting waste so he invented the seed drill. What it did was help farms plant in straight rows which made harrvesting easier. Charles Townson copied a dutch idea called crops rotations, which means you move where you plants the seeds. By rotating the crops it helps the soil restore the nutrint that the crops need. Cities are overpopulated and natural resources are high, the two main one, iron and coal. Theres also alot of cotton. Reasons it started in Great Britin, land, work laber, and natural resources. Also has a lager number of river, alot of water. Transportation, food, and power. Also a disadvange of water power, floods and droughts. Not all cities had rivers running through them either. Textstyle Industries, machenics, cloths. First having to make things by hand but new inventions were helping. Textstyle industry still use water power. One of the first factory was a cotton and silk factories. Efficance is going through the roof. Now with steam engines transportation is improving. With this speed and comunications are improving.
